the girl learner was not comfortable dancing in front of the boy learners because she is not used to it and it is against her culture and belief, the  boy learner was uncomfortable because he did not understand the language that was being spoken.

the language was a barrier so some learners could not understand and some learners did not feel comfortable dancing in front of the boys because it goes against her culture.

the teacher should use a universal language so that everyone can be accomodated and the teacher needs to do a background check on his or her learners so that he or she can understand where they are coming from and avoid learners being uncomfortable

the teachers should accomodate all the learners by knowing their cultural beliefs
